Despite Gerhards insistance to the contrary, that's how "Amerikaner" is
generally understood.  I think Gerhard is confusing the way things should be
technically or the way he would like them to be with the way they really are
based on common usage.

>From Gerhard's many posts on political issues, you can see he has a clear
attitude against the US.  Everything we do here is stupid, wrong, self
centered, and arrogant.  He may be right on some counts and is entitled to
his opinion, but I'm getting real tired of hearing it all the time.
